I submit this project with the intention of combining photography with embroidery.
The connection takes place both through the red thread that unites, and through the photographic medium itself that participates as a subject and object of testimony.
Both arts have an ancient origin and rooted in every tradition and culture, while traveling on two opposite speeds: where photography is expressed with a click and a flash of sensation, embroidery expands over time and meticulousness. This difference is resolved on the level of space, in which photography and embroidery fill the opposite gaps, creating a harmonious balance.
The embroidered phrases, or words, are part of a collection of poems by Chandra Livia Candiani, "The question of thirst", 2016 - 2020. C. L. Candiani, with her power to give a face to unknown sensations, uses the term "ruscellando” to encourage people to give a new meaning to themselves and therefore to the world, as is the flow of streams: unpredictable but never wrong.
Ruscellando is photography which, although printed on paper, is constantly evolving: of interpretations, uses, contextualizations and meanings.
Ruscellando is the red thread that creates dynamic and unexpected connections, which are born with the certainty of being insidious but not unreliable.
